Lesson 5: The Great Emperor

When I look up over my head, a huge walls stare at me and give me a sense of intimidation.

The water accumulated in the deep moat surrounding the walls was drawn from the Kendell River to the north, where clear water was home to a variety of underwater organisms.

A large crowd is crossing the bridge from the other side.

The main entrance ahead is open and a soldier is conducting a luggage inspection.

Bilu left himself to the flow of men to cross the bridge, undergoing a luggage inspection before knocking through the main gate.

"Ooh..."

Bilu is overwhelmed by the sight that has spread in front of him.

Stretching from the entrance to the city is a wide range of cobblestone-laid paths.

Lined up at regular intervals to pinch it is a giant bronze statue that strikes heaven.

Exquisitely crafted Grants 12 The Great God's Giant Statue looked down to welcome visitors.

At its feet, the open air is lined with a narrow area.

All the open air was full of people, and the open-air merchants raised their voices vigorously to cater to the guests.

"...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I can't even watch it forever. Bilu started walking.

Walk around busily.

It's like being a very urban, confused countryman.

In front of the stall where the liquor is served, there is a group that has been single-handedly wearing liquor bottles since daylight.

"The enemy Folzen is doomed! It's booze, bring more booze! Don't celebrate this. What are you gonna do!

"You should celebrate the sixth princess who defeated the country principality more than that!

"Besides, they had descendants of His Majesty the Second Emperor on the spot!

Spectacular fountain gardens welcome you through the noisy streets the gods overlook.

It changed when I hit the entrance and there was relatively calm air flowing here.

What's no different from earlier is that every person has a smile on their face.

I guess the aftermath of last month's victory remains for the whole people, not just drunkards.

The fountain garden is overflowing with people with a variety of purposes, from ladies with children, to drunk men, mummies with bandages all over their bodies, and student-like youth reading books.

The fountain, the eyeball of this garden, had children gathered.

The water columns off the coast of heaven, combined with the clouds visible behind them, have a mysterious atmosphere, and the water sounds of the splash touching the brilliant ears make them feel elegant.

"That..."

Biru, who was watching with a soothing face, let his gaze circle again.

Because I thought I saw someone who looked familiar.

Discover immediately. The man who covers his whole body with a bandage - it's Alfred.

He will be the only one dressed in such an eccentric manner, even though he is the capital of the great empire.

The guard with the suspicious face is pointing at me now.

"Mr. Alfred!

Bilu waved loudly.

…………

He gave me a side view here and then looked at Billu so I could suck it again.

Alfred, who I saw twice, approaches Biru.

"……………………… Why are you here?

I was told in a mixed voice.

"Your Majesty called me."

"Oh, I see. Surely there's no reason not to be called."

"Mr. Alfred is the one, why are you here?

"My boss has been summoned by His Majesty, so I'm with him."

"Aura?

"No, further up - this is Prince Brutal, 3rd prince."

And, as Alfred started walking, Biru would follow nature.

"You found out you moved the 3rd Imperial Army - the Imperial Black Knights privately. Well, there's no way I wouldn't find out, because it was while His Majesty was in Parental Solicitation. That must have been a lot of questions already."

"I also feel like I deserve it. I was trying to catch Liz."

"The punishment will be lighter in comparison because we will also be fighting together as a result"

The problem would be the treatment of the First Prince, wouldn't it? And, Alfred adds.

"There's a lot of noise in the Imperial Palace. It's a fuss going up and down already, whether it was aimed at the life of the 6th princess or almost killed the descendants of the 2nd emperor."

"Heh..."

"Still," he possesses the Thunder Emperor, and most importantly, behind the First Prince is the Five Noble Crones. The treatment of the First Prince, who has the support of the largest faction, must be given careful attention. Isn't His Majesty haunted by his head, too? "

Alfred sighs.

"I suppose you say you hate this kind of thing..."

Difficult to understand the expression with a bandage, but must have a confused expression.

"Besides, the fact that the descendants showed up here… that's another fuss. I wonder what's going to happen."

Billu asked Alfred, looking out into the sky with a distant eye.

"So where are they heading?

"You were following me without knowing anything?

Alfred shrugs his shoulders like a fright.

"What if I were an assassin?"

"No assassin stands out like you."

Bilu was currently walking on East Avenue.

Unlike Central Avenue, there are blacksmiths, weapons shops, tool shops, and a number of stores on the side of the road.

Because it's such a place, it's people like adventurers, mercenaries that you see.

A rough atmosphere runs through the streets.

Alfred enters a trail sandwiched between the guardhouse and the inn.

Walking down a dim road for a while, he was greeted by the dazzling sun, where the ancient temple was built.

"Master Aura is here."

And before Alfred pointed, there was Aura sitting in the shade.

There were several knights wearing black armor at the end of his gaze, surrounded by a large number of children.

There were tons of sweets in the soldiers' arms that didn't look tough.

The kids seem to be swarming for it.

"They're war orphans, aren't they? These are children taken to the Spirit Temple."

"Why is there a temple in a place like this?

The people of the Central Continent - especially the people of the Grants Great Empire - will have many who believe in the Spirit King.

Yet why is there a temple built ahead of you through such a trail?

"It's where the Spirit likes to be."

With what Alfred said, Biru was good at it.

This place is natural and overflowing, as if it had been isolated from the city where development had progressed.

The perimeter of the temple was covered with grass and the flowers of various colours, red and white, seemed to be in the wind with pleasure.

Looking at the sunlit temple, it's like that's all your heart is going to be washed.

"The development of the city has made the east a noisy place overflowing with adventurers and mercenaries at some point. I seem to have hit some hands, but it didn't seem to work"

You can't kick adventurers and mercenaries out of the East Side.

If you try to break something that has already taken root, rebellion would be amazing.

"Exactly, so we built a guardhouse to protect the children."

It would have been built before I got here. And, says Alfred.

"By the way, it is also where the Knights of the Imperial Black are now stationed. The person in charge is not very enthusiastic about his work. Aura kicked him out, and he was supposed to be in charge of policing East End."

Alfred was proud to say that Aura noticed.

I approached Bills away from the shade of the tree.

"……… You're rare."

"Long time no see... not so much."

"What can I do for you here?

"Your Majesty called me."

Biru unloaded the hemp bag he was carrying on his back onto the ground, and when he opened the bag, he stuck his hand into it unconstitutionally.

There was a letter (garbage) in the hand that came with it.

"This is it."

"…… it's garbage no matter how you look at it?

Bilu certainly thinks so, too. It's worse than when Liz gave it to me.

Aura tilted her neck when she read the letter she had been handed.

"I generally understand. But how are you going to get into the palace?

"…… with dark hair and dark eyes"

"You can't do it now. The Imperial Palace seems to be awake between factions... so the guards will not deal with it properly."

"If I showed you this letter..."

Aura sighs, hands on her forehead and shakes her head troubled.

"... do you think anyone thinks this garbage is a letter from His Majesty the Emperor?

While Aura called it garbage, she cleverly folded the letter with one hand and handed it to Biru.

"It's a letter from His Majesty the Emperor and other things I don't know if I can get in my lifetime. It's unprecedented, such as treating that so clutterfully and trashing it. Even if you can get through here, you'll be executed for disrespect, won't you?

"Right..."

"You have no choice. I'll follow you."

"What?"

"It means if I go with you, I can let you through."

"I appreciate that, but…………"

Looking behind her, there was a bunch of kids at some point.

Further afield, the Knights of the Imperial Black, said to be the elite of the Third Imperial Army, have been pushed down by their children.

"Aww, hey! Where are you going?

A tongueless girl pulled Aura's sleeve.

Aura smiles as she strokes the girl's head.

"I'm going to the Imperial Palace. While I'm gone, this bandage man, Alfredman, will play for you."

It shouldn't be Biru's mistake to see Alfred with a slight look on his face.

Aura ignored and said to Billu, "Shall we go?" and started walking ahead.

"Oh, come on in! Dear Aura, I ahhhhhhhh!?

A child arrives who does not hesitate to kill Alfred. In the meantime, he disappeared.

"No, don't. I'm noble! You think you can do this!?

"I am His Majesty Schwartz, who defeats the mummy man!

"Then I'm General Celia!

"Then I am His Majesty Altius!

"Hey, what, stop it! Don't touch it there!

Alfred says something, but the child doesn't listen.

Kids are horrible...... Biru thought so.

Return to the road you came and head north on Central Avenue. On that road, Aura calls out to Biru.

"Look, what we're going to do is we're supposed to be a glorious world where only the chosen ones can live. That can't be wrong. But also remember that jealousy and desire are swirling demons. Never be alarmed."

"Yeah."

"Pay close attention to those who come into contact. You can't just be called in and follow the wheel. Be especially careful with women. In the past, even the emperor has destroyed himself as a woman."

"Are you worried about me?

Saying so, I got a kick out of it.

"Shut up and listen"

"Yes......"

"Unfortunately, I can't keep up until the end. You're the only one His Majesty has called."

"Right. Well, the manipulation is a little suspicious, but I think we can work it out, right?

"I hope so…………"

Just keep your mouth shut and the two will move on.

As we went up a loose slope, an iron gate appeared that would be five times the height of Biru.

The tip area is pointed like a spear, giving it a feeling of heaviness.

A soldier comes running over who sees Aura.

"This is Brigadier General. What can I do for you today?

"It is the life of His Majesty the Emperor to lead this man to the Imperial Palace."

Aura pointed to Biru.

The guard opened his mouth looking at Biru, as he deserved it.

"… I have not heard such a story. I'm sorry, but we can't let you through."

Bilu carved a deep wrinkle between his eyebrows. That's impossible.

The Emperor immediately sent a letter to Bilu.

There's no way he hasn't told the guards that Bilu will be visiting.

(I wonder if it was someone else...)

There is a good chance that the matter of Biru has been stopped somewhere by some thought.

Alternatively, it is conceivable that the guards are under the control of someone.

Aura said the words solemnly.

"Is that so? Then say your name and affiliation."

"What?"

"He doubted my words, which are near the side of the Third Prince of Brutal. You will be rewarded accordingly."

In other words, if you don't go through with it, you're threatening to lose your job.

"Th, That is…….."

The guard's face was distorted in bitterness. Something in my heart is grinding in my expression.

After a while, the guard drooped his head.

"Go ahead. Please come through."

I felt a little sorry for him when he was depressed, but Aura, suddenly colorless, went through the gate, so I chased him.

A large number of soldiers were on guard on the vast grounds. A platoon is patrolling all the time.

With guards staring at any suspicious movements, Biru is walking on a wide path surrounded by rose gardens.

If you go straight ahead, there's a big fountain and the cross has a divided path.

On the west is a section lined with leading aristocratic mansions, and on the east is a residence and training ground for the elite "Golden Lions Knights" of the First Imperial Army.

On the north side is the national centre of the Grand Empire, the Imperial Palace Venezine.

When I lined up my shoulders, Aura hung me up.

"Earlier guards, but the breath of the five noblest Krone families is at stake. Please be careful because we support the First Prince. They don't choose the means. Do you know about the death of the head of the five nobles, the Kelheit family?

The Kelheit family is a great nobleman who brings together the Eastern nobles.

With the loss of our Lord about 3 months ago, my wife is now acting for me.

On the face of it, accidental death due to horsemanship is assumed. In fact, they say the theory of assassination is powerful.

"I'm assuming it's the Krone family's fault. I have no proof...... I am even taking it to the brink of an affair with the Duchess of Kelheit, who has just lost her husband. The aim must be to take over the Kelheit family, right? He's such a shameless bastard that he won't hesitate to poison you in the palace."

"I got it. Be careful with the Krone family."

Thank you. And Biru, who thanked Aura, reached the Imperial Palace and breathed.

It's not the beauty of the Imperial Palace, it's nostalgia that's creeping up from your chest.

It seems to have been remodeled several times, but it leaves a shadow of the royal palace a thousand years ago.

(......... it's like I'm home)

It's the first place I've visited since I was recalled to this world.

It all started here.

Altius and his brother-in-law made a pact, welcoming many of his companions through the world of war.

The last place where the Empire was born, the war ended and I said goodbye to Aleatia.

Beginning and ending place.

(Whatever's waiting for me, I won't stop)

With a new story, a hunch of beginnings, 1000 years ago "the hero stepped foot again.
